Troubleshoot the Intune Exchange Connector

This article describes how to troubleshoot issues related to the Intune Exchange Connector.

Before you start

Before you start troubleshooting an Exchange Connector issue in Intune, collect some basic information so that you’re working on a solid foundation. This approach can help you better understand the nature of the problem and resolve it more quickly.

  • Verify that your process meets the installation requirements. See Set up the on-premises Intune Exchange Connector.
  • Verify that your account has both Exchange and Intune administrator permissions.
  • Note the complete and exact error message text, details, and where the message is displayed.
  • Determine when the problem started:
    • Are you setting up the connector for the first time?
    • Did the connector work correctly and then fail?
    • If it was working, what changes occurred in the Intune environment, Exchange environment, or on the computer that runs the connector software?
  • What is the MDM authority? If it’s System Center Configuration Manager, which version of Configuration Manager do you use?
  • What version of Exchange do you use?

Use PowerShell to get more data on Exchange Connector issues

  • To get a list of all mobile devices for a mailbox, use Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics -mailbox mbx
  • To get a list of SMTP addresses for a mailbox, use Get-Mailbox -Identity user | select emailaddresses | fl
  • To get detailed information about a device's access state, use Get-CASMailbox <upn> | fl

Review the connector configuration

Review the on-premises Exchange connector requirements to make sure your environment and the connector is configured correctly.

General considerations for the connector

  • Make sure your firewall and proxy servers allow communication between the server that hosts the Intune Exchange Connector and the Intune service.

  • The computer that hosts the Intune Exchange Connector and the Exchange Client Access Server (CAS) should be domain-joined and on same LAN. Make sure that the required permissions are added for the account that’s used by the Intune Exchange connector.

  • The notification account is used to retrieve Autodiscover settings. For more information about Autodisover in Exchange, see Autodiscover service in Exchange Server.

  • The Intune Exchange Connector sends a request to the EWS URL by using the notification account credentials to send notification email messages together with the Get Started link (to enroll in Intune). Use of the Get Started link to enroll is a requirement for Android non-Knox devices. Otherwise, these devices will be blocked by Conditional Access.

Common issues for connector configurations

  • Account permissions: In the Microsoft Intune Exchange Connector dialog box, make sure you've specified a user account that has the appropriate permissions to execute the required Windows PowerShell Exchange cmdlets.
  • Notification email messages: Enable notifications and specify a notification account.
  • Client Access Server synchronization: When configuring the Exchange Connector, specify a CAS that has the lowest network latency possible to the server hosting the Exchange connector. Communication latency between the CAS and the Exchange connector can delay device discovery, particularly when using Exchange Online Dedicated.
  • Synchronization schedule: A user with a newly enrolled device could be delayed in getting access until the Exchange connector synchronizes with the Exchange CAS. A full sync takes place once a day, and a delta (quick) sync occurs several times a day. You can manually force a quick sync or full sync to minimize delays.
